Regal Smartvalve 7001 - User Manual

As population increases, municipal water and wastewater
treatment facilities must also increase in size in order to supply
and treat the greater demand for water. As the plants increase
in size, so do the distribution and piping systems carrying this
water to and from the population. These piping systems cover
many, many miles making it difficult to maintain suitable
disinfection and stable residuals using manual chlorine,
sulfur dioxide and ammonia gas feed systems.
The REGAL SMARTVALVES™ discussed in this bulletin solve
the problem whenever varying water flow needs to be
controlled accurately (and automatically) to provide the
correct ratio of chemical to water at all times. NO WASTED
CHEMICAL.
